Not greeted quite the same as booking directly and even though the stay requirements were met did not qualify for the perks of direct booking. Did not receive the same direction as those checking in shortly after. Shame as this made a total of a weeks stay for this trip alone, will consider other places next trip more seriously as this was our first preference for Fairbanks this trip based on past stays.

Couple retreat was very disappointing

This hotel had a very "kid camper" vibe.. which was not listed in the description. It was catered to kids- cartoon posters and signs everywhere - extremely cluttered. We chose a cabin vs a hotel room - (it was a very tiny space). it touted a billiard room- my husband is an avid pool player (it was under construction upon arrival), a restaurant (which was closed due to a fire) and placement to airport due to timing of flights. Won't be back or recommend.

Everything was 5-stars! My only critiques involved the room condidtions. The cleaning staff was incredible and kept everything looking spiffy. The only problems were that the walls are rather thin, so i could hear my neighbors when I had them; and the shower head was barely functional and in need of replacement. Thank you for taking such good care of me while I stayed.

The fireside cabin had gravel and mud in the carpet in the room. We had to move to the main hotel to avoid stepping in all the mess. The main hotel room was nice but didn’t get vacuumed when the room was serviced. Breakfast was free and very basic.

Have stayed here many times over the years and have always enjoyed my stay with no issues. That being said this time i stayed in room 314 for the 1st time and Cannot say i was happy with the toilet placement in this room. Have never had this issue in any other room but i think someone messed up on measurements and placement. It is all but right on top of the sink counter top and uncomfortable to use. Lol. Just saying, it really is.
